DVD 990; lineage: Audience recording. "Cruel But Fair" (HRV CDR026) Original Harvested SHN-files --> FLAC level 8. Probably a Mike Millard recording.

Here's a fair (!) description that turns up all around the net, which is why I do not give credit by linking to one randomly accessed webpage when it very likely is not the original source...
An excellent recording of a complete 1975 gig. The legend says it was taped by the legendary taper Mike Millard, containing the best-existing versions of Dick Parry performing a saxophone solo in "Echoes" and the prototype "Raving and Drooling" and "You've Gotta Be Crazy", which would eventually become "Sheep" and "Dogs" respectively.
After You Gotta Be Crazy, Dave Gilmour says "It was a cruel song.... But fair. The next tune we're going to do for you is another new number, it's called 'Shine On You Crazy Diamond'. It has something to do with Syd Barrett who some of you might remember..... & some of you probably won't."

The show is, however, NOT complete in the purist sense of the word. Part of HAC was missing, supposedly because of a tape flip, and it has been "completed" using a recording from the Boston show (see posts from the mailing list below). The sound quality is, however, outstanding for an audience tape, with the actual audience practically only heard between songs.
